I'm Not Supposed to Care

Gordon Lightfoot

I think you have somebody waiting
Outside in the rain to take you away
You got places to go, you got people to see
Still I'm gonna miss you
But anyway

I wish you good spaces in
The far away places you go
If it rains or it snows may
You be safe and warm and never grow old
And if you need someone who loves you, why
You know I will always be there
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care

I'll give you the keys to
My flying machine if you'd like
I will show you the light and when you call
I'm gonna come to you
And when you find someone who loves you,
I'll know you would treat me the same
Just lie there, you're not supposed to care

I think you have somebody waiting
Outside in the rain to take you away.
That's some kind of a game
Still I'm glad it came down
To the final round
But anyway

If you think you need someone who needs you,
You know I will always be there
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care
